i'd feel vaguely threatened as an adult man if i saw that approaching me

Mange sliter med å skaffe seg venner. Nå har denne gründeren hentet millioner for å løse problemet

Friendr har bygget en møteplass for folk som ønsker seg venner. Investorer priser nå selskapet til 55 millioner kroner.

the difference between connection and friendship is substantial, and it's rarer to find friends than connections, but both have their value, and every friendship began as a first interaction followed by a connection. being in touch with a few people on the regular is a foundation you can build upon, but it takes active effort to maintain it. one difference between a friend and a connection is that friends tend to participate in each others lives more actively.

Asking Random Strangers to Be My Friend it helps a bit that everyone there is going to college, but one important thing he does here is not make a big deal out of the rejections. there's a camera there, and everyone can see it, but that's both good and bad. it makes people curious because he's making a video, but a lot of people don't like being on camera and might think it's some kind of prank, so i'm thinking it kind of doesn't make much of a difference. you feel like you're with him as a viewer, but that's an illusion. people just saw a dude walking around alone with a selfie camera.

i think if i was going to try having tech as a hobby again, i'd have to do it in a deliberately pointless way, such as messing around with outdated tech, make it do silly stuff, etc. would be kind of funny to not even own a desktop computer except for something ridiculous that can't even connect to the Internet.

why has this week gone by so quickly? i thought it was Friday just the other day.

personal observation

a group of guys try to make friends in hard places: practical demonstration of what you'd have to do to make friends if you were starting completely from scratch.

a group of guys try to make friends in hard places:

i am in favour of "clean", and am supportive of the cause.

it's always a bit like that once you get to know people - "i don't want to be the difficult one... but i'm the difficult one."

savage comeback

her: surprise, motherfucker

you're the home maker, not your kids, so it makes sense - that's like asking the pigs to feed the cows

there is a lot of variation in how old people look and act compared to their biological age.

someone joked that their hobby is to kill time, so i joked they must go to bars a lot then, and i was correct. arguably, going to a bar, especially if it's the same group of people every time, is a kind of hobby. like Cheers the TV show. some people do that without the alcohol. dad is retired and he likes to just sit at a table they put out at the local shopping centre and wait for people he knows to pass by to strike up a conversation. he has enough acquaintances that there's a pretty good chance that someone he knows is going to pass through there.
